Huangshan Maojian First Grade Spring Green Tea

A legendary Chinese green tea with elegant orchid aroma, refreshing taste, and rare seasonal harvest

Why You’ll Love This Tea

• Rare Spring Harvest – Picked only for 20–30 days around Qingming season, once a year. Miss it, and you must wait until next spring.
• Authentic Origin – Grown in the 800m misty mountains of Huangshan, where clean air, pure springs, and rich soil produce teas of exceptional quality.
• Exquisite Craftsmanship – Hand-processed with triple pan-firing for tight, straight leaves shaped like “sparrow tongues.” Shake the dry leaves, and you’ll hear their crisp “sandy” sound.
• Elegant Taste, Daily Enjoyment – Smooth, fresh, and long-lasting flavor with delicate orchid and light chestnut notes. First Grade Maojian is perfectly balanced—premium yet more affordable than the rarest Special Grade.
• Cultural Heritage in a Cup – Listed as a Tribute Tea in the Qing Dynasty, celebrated by poets and scholars, and still honored today as one of China’s Top 10 Famous Teas.
  

A Story Steeped in Huangshan’s Mist

Huangshan Maojian, also known as Huangshan Yunwu Tea, is more than a drink—it is the spirit of Huangshan captured in every leaf. For centuries, tea farmers in Huangshan’s cloud-kissed valleys have nurtured tea bushes that grow slowly in cool mountain air. Our partner, Master Huang Shehua, has been crafting tea for over 30 years in Wangcun Town, the heartland of Huangshan green tea. Each spring, his team carefully hand-picks tender one-bud-two-leaf shoots and fires them in small batches, preserving the tea’s vibrant green and its signature orchid fragrance. To sip Huangshan Maojian is to taste the mountain’s mist, pine winds, and timeless elegance.
